"I'm afraid Captain Mystery's fortress is just a television studio set," Quen admitted, a little sheepishly. "I live in a modest two-story that's outfitted more for my grandmother's comfort than any defense."
He had another small sip of scotch while he organized his thoughts. "I do have an extensive library though. These creatures seem like something that could've come out of one of the stories. Maybe there's a legend or bit of lore that contains a grain of actual truth- I find that's often the case, you know."
And another sheepish confession. "Though I seemed to do alright with the hammer, I'm much more used to stage props than any actual means of defense. I suppose I shall need to buy a gun and learn to shoot it."
A bit of the ol' captain mystery grin came back though when he added. "I'm keeping the hammer though. Seriously. It's great for knocking them off their feet."
